{Cut to behind Strong Bad at his computer, with Coach Z standing on the right side of the screen}

COACH Z: Hey, that's a good rhyme! We should cut a demo!

BUBS:{enters} I could be your manager. I'll make millions!

STRONG BAD: You'll do no such thing! I don't need you fools. Now get outta here and let me answer Mike Controller's question.

COACH Z:{leaving} Yeah, we'll be better off without 'im.

BUBS:{leaving} I can play keytar!

{Cut back to the Compy}

STRONG BAD: Anyways, where were we? Oh yeah, Cheatday. {begins typing his response} So, nobody knows exactly when The Cheat's Cheatday is, so we celebrate it on the only day we know for sure it isn't. And that's the date of birth on his fake I.D.

{A fake identification card appears, titled "SCANDINAVIAN FAKE I.D.," giving a name of Ilko Skevüld, date of birth of 4/18/1961, height of 6-9, weight of 293, and a type of "Miner." A profile view of a man whose hair vaguely resembles The Cheat with a swirly chin, an underbite and The Cheat-type eyes is featured. The card is signed with Ilko's name.}

STRONG BAD:{voiceover} After breakfast, in honor of Ilko's heritage, we'll usually play some mining games...

{Cut to a scene in a field. Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat, all with helmets equipped with flashlights, stand around a pile of charcoal briquettes. Strong Bad holds a shovel, and The Cheat a pickaxe.}

STRONG BAD:{continuing voiceover} ...like... Mining... and... Coal?

{The Cheat half-heartedly plunks his pickaxe into the ground.}

STRONG MAD: I WIN!

{Cut back to Strong Bad typing his response.}

STRONG BAD: And then as a special treat, I let The Cheat answer some emails.

{Strong Bad gets up, and The Cheat takes his place. He brings up an email.}

The name "Mike Control" is a form of "Mic Control", or "Microphone Control". The term is a backcronym for MC, which was formally Master of Ceremonies. "Microphone Controle" came to be first used in rap music during the 1970s and 1980s. Strong Bad's incantation is rhythmically similar to a section of the Beastie Boys' song "Jimmy James" from their Check Your Head album.

Black lung disease is a lung condition caused by the inhalation of coal dust. It is also similar to the result of long-term smoking.

The Keytar (Keyboard + Guitar) is the name given to the musical keyboard synthesizer that is fashioned into the shape of a guitar. It is also known as a Gui-Board (Guitar + Keyboard).

Teh is a common misspelling of the, a mistake often made by typing too quickly. The mistake is common enough that most word processors have an automatic fix to spot instances of teh. The Compy 386 obviously doesn't have one of those. However, the misspelling itself is a staple of Leetspeak.

It's possible that Ilko being a "miner" is a play on the purpose of the fake ID (an attempt to persuade people that The Cheat isn't a minor).

You can still click on the Ilko Easter egg after you've clicked on the floppy disk Easter egg.

The ID card says Ilko's birthday is April 18, yet this email was released on July 5 and The Cheat answering emails is not presented as a flashback.

Even though the Potate bag appears to be sitting on top of Strong Bad's head (it doesn't seem to be attached or stuck in any way), it manages to not fall off, even though Strong Bad is moving his head a lot while singing.

The game Strong Bad says in his sleep is Super Contra, a notoriously difficult sidescrolling shooter arcade game. It was released on the NES under the title Super C.

The ringing Ilko head may be a reference to Mr. Machine, a popular toy made by Ideal Toy Corp. in 1960. Mr. Machine was a wind up 'man' who would walk, open, and close his mouth while a bell rung in his stomach.

The Ilko head may also be a reference to an Easter egg in the Nintendo 64 game Cruisin' USA. A player had to achieve a "Hot Time" on any stage. After entering their initials, the player would scroll down to the bottom of the screen, then hold Left on the analog stick for about 35 seconds. A head of similar characteristics would roll across the conveyer belt. The ringing noise heard in this toon is the same as the ringing noise made by the rollers on the conveyor belt.
